The kids (0m - 5yrs) replica kits were due to be in store today, but popped in earlier and was told they've been delayed due to the ongoing issues at Calais.

I'm sorry but that's incompetence again, the club is improving but should have had that stock in 6 weeks ago. There aren't 6 week delays with the tunnel.

What an absolute Disgrace. Delays on football kits surely should take priority over HGV drivers getting threatened and attacked at the port. FFS when will SISU get off their backsides and sort out all of the worlds problems for us?

No they don't. But let's ignore that insignificant detail and get stuck right into this one anyway.

Irrespective of whether the club outsourced their retail operation or not, there are not 6 week delays at Calais and the club is losing money if we can't sell merchandise to willing customers. I recognise the trend on this board is to dampen down any criticism of the running of this club but I doubt any of our competitors have such problems.

Don't panic. The mayor of Calais is threatening to open the border with the UK so the immigrant crisis will be over by the weekend. How she can open the border is puzzling me? Presumably she's going to part the waves Moses style so they can walk over.

SISU are planning to send over the now unused barrow that they had in the Arena shopping centre that was supposed to replace the club shop at the Ricoh to transport the toddler replica kits from the stranded drivers at Calais who have been stuck at the port for over 6 weeks. Steve Waggot blamed the missing toddler kits on the break in at the club shop 12 months ago. In SISU we trust.

You are aware the whole manufacturing industry doesn't stop so that we can have every possible kit option before everyone else. Some teams haven't even got their adult home kits on sale yet let alone anything else. I think, given the change of supplier, its been a pretty good effort to have home and away on sale before the start of the season - there's been plenty of seasons that hasn't happened.

No one supported Sixfields. It was a necessity though.

They would not have had such a problem if they had produced them in the UK.

Or or they could have made a little less profit.
